Yamaha's flagship electric bass model in the BB series, the "BBP," has undergone a minor model update! ・3-ply alder/maple/alder body construction The new BB Series features a 3-ply alder/maple/alder body construction. The hard maple sandwiched between the alder on both sides enriches the midrange and produces a resonant tone that blends seamlessly into the band’s sound. Furthermore, the use of maple for the body allows for direct sound transmission from the maple neck, reducing sound loss between the body and neck and ensuring that string vibrations are reliably transmitted. ・Miter Bolting System We employ the miter bolting system, which adds two screws that secure the neck end at a 45-degree angle from the back of the body, in addition to the four screws that secure the neck vertically from the back of the body. This firmly bonds the body and neck together, producing a powerful, resonant tone that feels like a single, unified unit. Compared to a standard bolt-on joint, this design minimizes energy loss from string vibration, delivering rich sustain and overwhelming body resonance. ・Newly Developed Pickups The new BB series is equipped with pickups newly and exclusively developed for each model. While preserving the traditional BB sound, these pickups enhance output gain in the mid-to-high frequency range, delivering a clear sound with well-defined contours. The pickups, tailored to each model’s unique character, enable the creative and versatile expression that players demand. ・Convertible-Type Bridge & Saddle The “strings-through-body” construction routes the strings through the back of the body. Compared to the conventional method of routing strings vertically from the back of the body, routing them at a 45-degree angle transmits the energy of string vibration to the body with minimal loss.In the conventional “strings-through-body” method, where strings pass directly beneath the saddle, significant vibration loss occurs at the plate and saddle, making it difficult to transmit string vibration efficiently and reliably. However, by cutting the bottom of the body at an angle and routing the strings at a 45-degree angle, stress on the strings at the saddle is reduced. The BB Pro series features a Vintage Plus bridge, delivering a sharp and clear sound.The Vintage Plus Bridge’s brass saddle produces deep bass tones, while the steel plate delivers a bright sound. Metal parts such as springs and screws are made of stainless steel to ensure resistance to rust and corrosion. Furthermore, the varying contact points of the semicircular saddle accommodate a wide range of the player’s expressive needs, from crisp, clear tones to warm, rich sounds.
